Restoration of Georgia's Five Cross Flag

January 14th, 2004 21 years ago

The national flag of the Republic of Georgia, known as the 'five cross flag,' was restored to official use after an absence of approximately 500 years. The flag features a large central cross representing Christianity, with smaller crosses in each quadrant, symbolizing the country's rich religious heritage. This restoration was part of broader efforts to reinforce national identity in post-Soviet Georgia and to strengthen cultural ties with past traditions.
